An Important Ruling on the Subject By
the Department..
WASHINGTON, July 3O.-In the case Of
Thomas E. Watson, OF Washington Terri
tory, in which is involved the question OF
the rights Of settlers upon school lands in
the Territories, Assistant Secretary Null
drow has decided that under the resolu-
ton law granting to Territories lands for
school purpose, where the land at the date
of survey was occupied by an actualsettler.
his right to land is superior to the right OF
the Territory and that where the school
lands at the date Of the survey are occu-
pied by an actual settler the Territory
is entitled to select equivalent lands
in lieu thereof as indemnity.
Having made such selection. the indemnity
land so selected is held in reservation in
lieu of the school section Upon which such
selection was made. and the school section,
by the act of such selection, is excluded
from the reservation. and therefore is an
entry of a school section made while the
selection of the equivalent land remained
intact, and was valid.

THE WRECK AT FEELEY'S.
Further Particulars From an Eye Witness
Of the .Hayoc-Active Work of Road
master Douglas and His Wrecking

V10Ws = -=LE--
From q gentleman who passed the scene
of the wreck Of Thursday, the following
facts were learned: There were about
'twenty-six cars in the freight train. In
crossing a cattle guard on the line between
the Butler & Small and the Cartier ranches.
about five miles south Of Feeley's Station,
the timbers under the rails across the cat
tie guard turned and put ten cars off the
track. Seven were landed in the ditch,
some turned bottom up. They were coal
and salt cars. Roadmaster Douglass, from
Silver Bow, came down at once with q
wrecking crew, and a wrecking car from the
south arrived about 8 o'clock. By an
oversight the passenger train that left
Butte at-7:10 was backed to Feeley's Sta.
backed to Silver Bow. Mr.. and Mrs.
Cowan there were very kind 10 doing
EVERYTHING IN THEIR POWER
for the passengers and train crew in the
way OF furnishing them with provisions,
though they are not in the habit OF setting
out an eating house. The train from Butte
left Feeley's at 2 o'clock next day. The

until the wreck was cleared up. It seems
strange that it was not run up on the

might have been thus saved. Superintend.
ent Blickensderfsr, his Chief Clerk Hassett
and Division Engineer Holbrook were on
the delayed train, and had to remain over
with the rest. The Superintendent was in
the best of humor, and Notwithstanding
his detention his liver was

The Homestake District.

The Homestake is, situated about nine
miles southeast of Butte, and has had, in
an area of from fifteen to twenty miles in
length and from twelve to fifteen in width,
over 100 locations made. A few of them
are mentioned below:
THE COL FLINT MINI

cradle development has proved the prop.
erty valuable. A tunnel 400 feet in length
was run some time since on the lead which
assays from IL to 80 ounces in silver per
ton. Another tunnel 300 feet lower down
the mountain side has been started and is
now in $50 feet but has not, so far, struck
the msin ore body. The company expect
to tap the ledge after they have tunneled
100 feet more. The ore
is lead-silver. The third class
mills $40 and is two-thirds gold. The
mine is at present being worked by six men.
The first tunnel cuts the vein at a depth OF
200 feet. The second tunnel will hit the
ore body at a depth OF 300 feet.

TALKS ABOUT TOWN.

"See here young man." said a
prominent Caldwell citizen to the
Stroller as he caught him in his
"den" the other afternoon, where
are all those Dutch you were crow
ing SO loudly about early this
spring." Give it up. Suppose
they are engaged in the lucrative
business of scratching the barren
sandhills of Nebraska with the vain
hope of raising enough crops to
stave off the mortgage fiend or sa-
tate the ravenous appetite of the
railroads for another year. Some
people are easily satisfied. And
again, the exhilarating pastime of
lodging cyclones and praying for
rain possesses charm to eastern
people hard to shake off.

THE new code of this territory
goes into effect on the 18th of June

changes in the laws will go into

decides that the road supervisors

their Office, but that it would be
better for the boards of commits

after that time, and then reappoint
them, if they desire to retain their

REQUIESCAT IN PACE.

The sound of warlike prepare
tions, the music of boisterous
drums, the silver voices of heroic
bugles, the dull booming of cannon,
and the sharp rattle of musketry
have died away into history. A
tong sweep Of years have disappear
ed in the abyss of time since that
golden-hued morning, when the
angel of peace stood in the dawn of
the new era and showered her be-
'nign Blessings upon those who lost
and those who won. The battle
riven standards which were hallow-
ed by the love and devotion of the
old soldiers have been enwrapped
with tender care and folded away
among the heirlooms of the nation.
"A few more years and the last hero
of the grand army of freedom will
sleep with his comrades in arms
Sin the windowless palace of rest"
but they will not be forgotten.
The aims, the dignity and mar
tial grandeur of nation are moth
ing more than the truthful reflec-
ton of the lives and meritorious
deeds of the men who stood in the
ranks of its defenders. The his
torian who CLEANS after the tempest
of battle and lays his sheaves of
homage on the altar Of truth, is the
only faithful artificer of the per-
sonRel Of the contending armies. |
The only inheritance brave SOL
dier can translate into immortality |
is the record OF his services in de-
tense of truth, liberty and human
lily. Every life given up in obedi-
enee to the commands of the state

THE TRIBUNE
CALDWELL, DAAo. MAY IS, 1887.
THE PROHIBITION BATTLE

The saying that politics makes
queer bed fellows finds an unique
parallel in the prohibition battle
that is now raging in the widely
differing States of Oregon and
Texas. In the latter state, which
lis reliably Democratic With ma
,jofity ranging as high as $4,000,
we find the most able and promi-
nent Democrats in the state openly
and urgently supporting the prohib-
dtioh movements. 'Senator-elect
Reagan ex-Senatos. Maxey and
many others have taken the field
for prohibition. If politics enters
into the question at all it will be
brought in by the Republicans who
ARE quietly laying low awaiting an
opportunity tedivide the Democrats
politically upon the issue. If pro-
hibitien can be made effective in
any single state in the Union Texas
is that state. The trouble in Kan
'sas and Iowa has been the fanatical
destruction of millions of dollars
worth of property-brewerys, dis
$illeries, saloon fixtures, etc.,
without compensation and backed
only by the argument that they
had caused enough woe and desc
lation to merit complete annihila-
ton. While such argument may
be true, morally considered, it is
1hanifestly unjust as long as the
national government fosters the
traffic. AS a consequence, the
capital thus rendered imperative
is engaged in defying the law. In
Texas the capital invested in the
manufacture of spirits is small, the
liquors all being shipped in from
ether states, and hence the actual
amount of capital destroyed, pro-
hibition succeeds, will be small.
In Oregon the fight at present is
being carried on by imported
speakers of the w. C. T. U. and
the Knights of Labor. The stand
|
taken by the Knights in this case
shows that they are able to see that
whiskey Is the worst enemy the
workingmaa has.
The outcome of the fight in both !
Of these states is awaited with in ,
tercst.
